BD Angouleme is coming up! I'll be mostly at the Misma booth, if I'm not there I might be having a drink behind the Breakdown Press table. Check out the signing schedule and say hi. Also: "The Artist, Le Cycle Eternel" is in the official selection for a prize at the BD Angouleme. An enormous honor!
Tomorrow I'll be leaving for Angouleme already. I'm part of the artist residence / colony Pierre Feuille Ciseaux (PFC) #6. I'm going to join a bunch of comic hippies from all over the world (best people) to drool some schizzo trash on paper. I'm excited!!

Such an honor! I was awarded with the Sondermann Prize. Holy Cow and Thank YOU! Otto Waalkes got one as well. Big Hugs to my friends who came out to Frankfurt with me to celebrate this bizarre occasion!

I will be showing some work, reading a little bit from it and will be talking with Andreas Platthaus (FAZ) about comics.

Ok, I lost a little track of the NEWS section of this site. So here are some News:
I gave some material and an interview to dreimalalles.org. Andreas Reiterer of Wiener Zeitung wrote a lovely article about my 2 recent books. Two more or less stupid reviews or articles appeared online. I canâ€™t make sense of them, maybe you can.
Besides my weekly Series THE ARTIST on VICE, Iâ€™m working on things Iâ€™m very excited about but canâ€™t talk about yet.
Iâ€™m going to Safari at the end of the month. Come by if you can. Iâ€™ll bring some copies of the 2nd edition of DONâ€™T WORRY and will also be secretly selling and signing early bird THE ARTIST copies, which will come out with Breakdown Press this fall. (the german edition of THE ARTIST came out earlier this year).
The picture you see above was taken while we built up my solo show at Gallery Diana Lambert in Vienna. This show was the first show I was completely happy with. I had the feeling everything in there made sense. Big shout out to my gallerist Diana! (better pictures soon). For more frequent updates follow me on twitter, although I'm going to keep you updated on this very site.
Have a great weekend! A

Just came back from TCAF in Toronto. Such a wild fest!

And our shitty little bar. It's fun to collect money for a festival by selling booze. Thanks for drinking so much, beerfaces! You've been really supportive.
